Can you define a scratchpad variable as an array

[johannes5]

Hi ServiceNow Community Developers,

Is there a way to define a scratchpad variable as an array? Basically can you declare a scratchpad variable as an array just like you would with an other field in a script in ServiceNow? Please advise.

Thanks,

Johannes

Don't see why not.   You could always do a test run where you set a scratchpad to an array, then gs.log it in the next activity (assuming you're not working in a scoped app)

I tested this out in a workflow and it worked fine. So yes, you can!

var test_array = [];

test_array.push('test1');

test_array.push('test2');

workflow.scratchpad.new_array = test_array;
